"Big Picture" is a wonderful blog about new stories presented in beautiful photographs. From the majestic forces of nature, to human fates and sports - this blog shows you the "Big Picture", indeed.

The image featured above is of the Chaiten volcano (Chile) as it began its first eruption in thousands of years. An electrical storm is breaking out directly above the erupting volcano, an occurrence encountered before, yet scientists still differ on what causes it.
